Describe an exciting book that you enjoy reading

You should say:

When you read it

What kind of book it is

What it is about

And explain why you think it is exciting

这是一道物品类话题新题目，题目关键是令你激动的一本书。同学们要注意审题，题干都是现在式所以同学们应该介绍一本正在阅读的书。

有些同学可能会因为没有完整的看过一本书而无话可说，事实上这道题也可以使用迁移法改编法。同学们可以将自己看过的电影、电视剧、纪录片、人物故事等改编成一本你所看过的书籍。

激动兴奋的原因可以有很多，可以是某一深层的意义，也可以是书本的设计、插画等浅层原因。但同学们要注意分点解释并简单解释，避免一句话带过。

• 小问“When you read it” 什么时候阅读的

首先要清楚地表明时间，但不一定是过去某一具体的时间因为是现在仍在阅读的书。可以是周末、放学后或节假日阅读。

• 第二小问“ What kind of book it is ” 什么类型的书

首先表明书的类型，比如是小说、还是散文、还是诗集等等，还可以再细化下去，是历史小说、科幻小说...此外可以补充是否是你喜欢的类型，喜欢这类书本的原因等。

• 第三小问“ What it is about " 书是关于什么

很多同学认为无从下手，不知从何说起。首先概括说明书本是讲述某件事、某个人的经历或是某个新的世界观，然后再展开具体描述时间、地点、人物（选择某一印象深刻的片段即可）！

• 第四小问“ And explain why you think it is exciting ” 为什么认为他

原因可以分为深浅两层原因。一是因为书本故事情节吸引人；二可以是因为书本让你懂得了一些深层的意义，改变了你的想法等。

下面是关于这个话题可以延伸出来的思维图：

Well, it’s set in rural Ireland in the 19th century and it’s the story of how a family fled the country to escape the famine. It then narrates their journey across the sea to America. It's told from the point of view of the young girl in the family and it's a really captivating book, but quite horrific, I mean it sent shivers down my spine . Many of the characters die on the trip. It was very tragic, one sad event after another. I liked the way the author developed the plot and built these characters that you feel so much for, especially the young girl who is adorable.

I think I really enjoyed it because it is a doddle to read . I know it’s aimed at young children or teenagers, but it is really engaging, I mean, the cliff-hangers had me on the edge of my seat all the way through. Overall, I would definitely recommend it, I think it's a really good read, both for children and adults. I think there’s something for everybody there ,so it’s great, in fact, I’d go as far as to say. it’s possibly the best adventure book for children that I have ever read.

亮点表达：

put it down  爱不释手

narrates 叙述

from the point of view 从...视角（描述）

sent shivers down my spine 令人脊背发凉（害怕）

tragic 戏剧化

doddle to read 易读懂的
